1
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 1: Dear listener, reporting from your Belinda, California. I am actually

2
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: waiting for my niece Genevieve. I am baby sitting right now. Guys.

3
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 1: I haven't done this in a minute, and let me

4
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: tell you, I'm loving every second of it. My sister

5
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 1: Jacqueline is out for Hispanic Herritage Month. My other sister, Jenica,

6
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: she's out being you know, a young lady in her twenties,

7
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: and I'm happy. She's celebrating her best friend's birthday and

8
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: they're out in Miami. Jenica is usually the one to

9
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: take care of the kids because my schedule is always

10
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: like crazy. But I did tell myself this year I

11
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 1: was going to slow it down and I wanted to

12
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: spend time with my nieces and nephews and the people

13
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 1: that I love. And I'm so glad that I'm able

14
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: to do it. So I love to see that my

15
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: sisters are out doing their thing and I'm stepping in

16
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: and I love it. The last time I did this

17
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: was when Johnny was I don't know, he's now twenty

18
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: four going on twenty five, and you know, it's been

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: a while. So I woke up early today and I

20
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: always wake up early, but usually it's for me to

21
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: meditate and pray and all that stuff. And I spent

22
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: the night at my sister's house, so I am kind

23
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: of off of routine, but it's okay. It doesn't bother

24
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: me at all because this is worth it. But did

25
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: a little prayer, cooked the kid's breakfast, got them ready

26
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: for school. I've had them for a few days now,

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 1: and then yeah, right now I'm outside waiting for Genevieve,

28
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: who is my sister's second daughter. She has four kids.

29
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: She has volleyball practice, so I'm waiting for her. And

30
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: I just wanted to send you guys a voice. Don't

31
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 1: let you know how my life is going right now.

32
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: I thought you'd be interested. And I've had a little

33
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: bit of work, thankfully. It's all been quick stuff that

34
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: could be taken care of over the phone, for instance,

35
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: things for my showcase up November eighth, which I'm really

36
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: excited about. I think I finally found the name, and

37
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,880

43
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. It's just crazy because I dropped off

44
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,119
Speaker 1: the kids and then an Emilio, well, I Medio okay

45
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,680

Speaker 1: we do now? We went back home and took a nap,

47
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: something I'm never able to do, so we were just

48
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: chilling for a little bit, took a nap, went to

49
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: meet my friend Brianna because she lives out here in

50
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 1: Brea for lunch and her mom. We had sushi, and

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: then I want to go pick up Jordan and jj

52
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: who are the boys, and her boys obviously, and then

53
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: we went to the park and Emilia was throwing football

54
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: with them, and Ryu, our dog, was running around and

55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: it was cute. Then we took them to go get

56
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: something to eat. And now I'm here waiting for Miss

57
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: Genevieve to get out of volleyball practice. And then later

58
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: on Jayla, the eldest, she has volleyball practice, so she

59
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: won't come out until six. So it's just crazy. My respect, honestly,

60
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: my respect to all the mothers out there that do

61
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: this on a daily basis and have one then I mean,

62
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's already it's hard with one child, but

63
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: for mothers and parents that have multiple children, like, honestly,

64
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: my respects. I admire you guys so much more. I'm

65
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: having a great time, to be honest, I really am.

66
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: But this is not my everyday life, you know. And

67
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: I think it's easy for moms to forget about themselves

68
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: because their day to day revolves around the kids. And

69
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: I think that's great. But I just want to tell you, guys,

70
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: just take a little time for yourself. I have to

71
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: remind my sister every once in a while, Hey, it's okay,

72
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: go get your news done, Go take a breather. I

73
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: got you. I wish my sister lived closer to us,

74
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: because you know, Jennica and I live like freaking three

75
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: minutes away from each other. But like I told her, hey,

76
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: I want you to remember who Jackie was before becoming

77
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: a mom. And yes, you're a mother, and I think

78
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful thing. It's a blessing. It's beautiful. But

79
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: also like, don't forget who you are and what you

80
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: want and your dreams and your desires as well. In

81
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: the mix, and of course the kids are especially before

82
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: they turn eighteen or when they're under eighteen, should I

83
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: say they are priority? But also you can take some

84
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: time for yourself. It's okay. There's nothing wrong with you

85
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,799
Speaker 1: doing a little something for yourself, you know. Anyway, guys,

86
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 1: that's my day. And yeah, I'll drop them off at

87
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: school tomorrow and from there I'll go to my photo

88
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: shoot a million and I have a photo shoot together

89
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: for the album cover of my EP coming in November

90
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: as well, so I'm super excited about that. And then

91
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: their mom will pick them up tomorrow from school. I'm

92
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: going to miss them. You've had such a nice time, guys.

93
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: We got a slide for them. On Saturday, we were

94
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: playing in the pool and joining the last few days

95
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: of summer. And then on Sunday we just chilled and

96
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: made them breakfast. It was really cute, waffles and eggs

97
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 1: and chocolate milk. And then we got in the pool

98
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: all day on Sunday. On Saturday we watched a fight.

99
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: I got the days and mixed up. But anyway, that's

100
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: what happened this weekend, all right, guys. Well, this is

101
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: a very long voice. I think is the longest one.

102
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: I've left you, guys, but thank you for listening. I

103
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: love you, I appreciate you, and I will catch you soon. Okay,

00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,080
